Default Name That Bumper

Well, I found some bumpers in the local classified, had some pics sent to me, anyone know what the brand of the following bumpers are (they have a trailer hitch on the front and back) He said that he bought them from a company but didnt know the name. Seem like a good deal even homemade.

Front:


Back:




On a side note, does it look like the back can be used as a recovery point?

yeah.. i didnt know if they were homebrew or not when i got the pick of the front, but the back kind of seemed like it.. And the back i def. wouldnt use, the front i would have to actually see the jeep to how its mounted.

The rear bumper is definately homebrewed, the front looks like an old Tomken.

No do not use that rear bumper as a recovery point! I would be hesitant to tow with it as well.

The front looks nice in any event, but like hedbutter said, we need to see how it's mounted.
